This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(b), (d) Let mass m is placed at x from the end B respectively.
TA and TB be the tensions in wire A and wire B respectively.
For the rotational equilibrium of the system,

TBx-TA(l-x)=0
=
Stress in wire A = SA=
Stress in wire B = SB= where a are the area of wire
We know that aB=2aA
Now for equal stress
SA=SB
So
So x =l/3 and l-x= 2l/3
Hence mass m should placed to B.
For equal strain
StrainA= StrainB
After solving we get x= x= 10l/17
l-x=l=10l/17=7l/17

(a), (d) Forces at cross section is F.

Now applying formula . stress = tension/area=F/A
Tension = applied force =F

(c), (d) The ultimate tensile strength for material ii is greater hence material ii is elastic over larger region as compared to material (i) for material (ii) fracture point is nearer, hence it is more brittle.

(d) a mass M is attached at the centre. As the mass is attached to both the rods, both rod will be elongated, but due to different elastic properties of material rubber changes shape also.

(c) 2Tsin -mg=0
2Tsin =mg
Total horizontal forces = Tcos
T=mg/2sin

As mg is constant T
Tmax= mg/sin min
Sin min=0, min= 0
Tmin=mg/2sin max
max= 1, =900

BO+OC- (BD+DC)
= 2BO -2BD
= 2 (BO-BD)
=2 [ (x2+L2)1/2-L]
=2L [ (1+ )1/2-L]
= 2L [ (1+ ]=
Strain =

(c) Consider the diagram where a spring is stretched by applying a load to its free end. Clearly the length and shape of the spring changes. The change in length corresponds to longitudinal strain and change in shape corresponds to shearing strain.

(d) breaking stress = breaking force/area of cross section
Breaking force will not depend upon length.
